Maybe I’m reading it wrong. I’m guessing C3AE, so 1963 390. I thought it was a C6ae. False alarm!

390 block.  Does it have the extra webs to the main saddles?  My notes say that this is a 390HP service block but drilled for hydraulic lifters.  I did not make note where that info came from though.

Unfortunately I’m not willing to pay $1500 for a running long block, to find out. Seems like a nice guy, we just are kinda far apart on price points.
